Some more information will help us advise you more accurately. Are you playing Fed, Romulan, or KDF? What profession are you? Tac/Sci/Eng?
What style do you prefer? You like larger beam boat cruisers? Smaller, faster Escort style? Or maybe something in the middle? Any information you can give will help us give you a better answer.
ok.I have over 13 characters. I am a lifetime member and I plau mostly fed, but have two of each faction. I like using lasers over cannons and cruisers overs science and tactical ships. I like using the carriers when playing a fed and the Rom's teleport feature when playing a romulan
For what you do, and considering this is likely your first T6 ship purchase, I would go with the Command Battlecruisers. The Tactical Variant is a well rounded ship, it's not 'tops' in DPS, but it's very good and can take a lot of punishment. The Science Cruiser is pretty nice too.. the Engineering one is junk, just use it for unlocking the costumes.
If you're moving up to T6 (stay away from T5, they're a dead end at this point) you really want to look at the trait. The Tactical version of the Command Battlecruisers has probably the best trait in the game 'All Hands On Deck.' These 'traits' slot under your captain abilities and they go with you from ship to ship. The Command Ships also have the benefit of being Fleet Quality right from the C-Store, no fleet modules or upgrading needed. The Science version has a pretty underrated trait as well, it can turn your Tachyon Beam into a full shield heal for you and everyone around you. It synergies well with 'All Hands On Deck.'
There is also the T6 Battlecruiser pack to consider as mentioned above. These are softer then your full Cruisers, but put out massive damage. They are some of the best damage ships in the game and also come with a very nice trait 'Emergency Weapons Cycle' which is absolutely great. This pack is very worthy of consideration even if you prefer larger cruisers. They're still tough ships and they can really dish out the punishment. All 3 ships in the pack are spectacular.
I would start by looking there, see if any of those get your attention. Those are the two best 'bundles' outside of the Pilot Ships which are small escort style ships, but are also fantastic.
Great advice all around. I may likely go with the Cruiser pack as I like the sound of a tachyon heal beam. Very nice. However, right now, I am stuck outside the game as my PC keeps crashing cause my Windows 10 and my Radeom HD 4200 are not compatible with the AMD chipset or Direct3D drivers. Poppy-TRIBBLE!

Seems like gfx stopped for a milisecond since it couldn't render an object.
First of all, check if your DirectX is up to date (that one is given).
Second, start the game in safe and windowed mode.
Third, tweak the settings leaving shadows and post processing on lower settings (these two particularly seem to be an issue for AMD/ATI graphic cards, specifically when coupled with high tesselation settings).
Fourth, if you're on the new Radeon Crimson drivers, rollback, lots of peeps had issues with them couple with Win10 (although I myself am using W10 and Crimsons without any issues).
If you still have issues after all these, when after you switch to safe and to windowed, and you get to game (you should be able to), switch it from DX11 to DX9 until you find the problem, this should let you run the game normally at a reduced graphic quality - enough until you tweak with the settings to find what's bothering. This might or might not help if you're using Crimson drivers, though, but it is worth a try.
Just a word of advice, if you know you're going to buy a ship when you get back, the 20% ship sale ends in just over 8 hours. If you have a way to get on before the sale ends you'll save 20% on the ship or bundle you're looking to get.
Good luck, hope you're able to get what you're wanting.

Other than that all-in-one collection, what faction and what type of ship do you want?
